  • When does a researcher deserve to be a “co-author” of a research paper?
  • Can a researcher really publish 217 research papers a year?
  • Does being in the “top 2% of scientists” always reflect the quality of a researcher and their research?
  • How can academic researchers be fairly evaluated?

Yesterday, I had the pleasure of giving a public online talk titled “Research Publishing and Unethical Practices,” at the Hasoubawayh Forum. I addressed numerous unethical practices related to our shamed reality in the research community and our responsibilities in this regard. In doing so, I answered the questions above and others!

The lecture is available on YouTube. Comments, criticism, and opinions are welcome.
